One day a shepherd caught a wolf. He wanted to give him some advice. The shepherd said : you are always doing bad things, you attack the flocks, you steal sheep and lambs, why don't you pick up on rams?

The wolf said : the rams are too strong for me, I can not handle them. The shepherd said : you only attack the weak and the frail. The shepherd thought about it carefully and said : if I don't steal, I will die of hunger; if I attack the rams, they will kill me. The shepherd though carefully and said : you are right, you too need to eat and make a living, I tell you what...

The wolf said : ok, I am listening. The shepherd said : trust in God and wait for destiny. Destiny, said the wolf, what is this destiny? The shepherd said:Destiny is what God has installed for you in this life. Go to the road and wait for the herd to pass. The sheep which is meant for you, will come to you.

The wolf did as he was told. He waited for the first herd... second herd ... third ....but nothing happened. No sheep came close to him and he was starving. The next herd, the wolf jumped the last sheep.

The shepherd called him and said: you lied to me. The wolf said : destiny refused to come near me , so I helped it come to me.
